I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 7.10 to 8.04 beta using kernel 2.6.24.16. Ever since then I've been receiving a "failed to initialize HAL" error upon entering Gnome. This apparently prevents me from accessing my wifi card and mounting my Windows partitions, among other things. I regain HAL when I booted up with my Gutsy Kernel 2.4.22.14. Based on what I've read here, it seems to be a problem with the kernel, as people started experiencing this when they upgraded their kernel. -- [gutsy] failed to initialize hal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137559 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
